As one of the 17 free places, same as Grealish and Sterling.Assuming Carson, Ake ,Walker , Stones are our 4. Which is why Phillips' status has no relevance.

Which leaves us with no ability to sign any left back?

Yes, so as we probably will sign a left back somebody will need to leave. Probably Jesus.

If Jesus leaves we can sign any left back and any DM, regardless of homegrown status? That's interesting, I didn't know that.

All this talk of Foreigners in here... Surely @tolmie's hairdoo will be posting "Hot Blooded" soon...
...or would that just be "Cold as Ice"?

There is no minimum quota of 8 HG players.

The rule is a maximum of 17 foreign players.

Also this is the PL rule, we have to build our squad via the UEFA rules for Champions League purposes so it's max 17 foreign players, 4 Club trained players and 4 English players.

We currently have 13 foreign players (not including Mendy), 1 club trained player - Foden - and 6 English players - Sterling, Walker, Stones, Carson, Ake & Grealish.

So we actually have to list 2 English players as foreign players currently because we've filled up our English player pot.

14 foreign, assuming Alvarez is part of the team.

If anyone leaves (other than foden), the same applies.

We have room for one more, regardless of status. Thereafter, it is one in one out. Regardless of status.

If we are looking at Phillips, it is because of his ability, not because he is English. Same with any player of any nationality, assuming they qualify for a work permit. Their league experience maybe helps, but their status doesn't matter.
